Chapter 12 Command Line Interface Reference

restore aaa

To cause the AAA authentication configuration to be copied from the specified configuration file into

persistent memory, use the restore aaa command. The configuration file must exist in the savedconfig

directory. To display the contents of the savedconfig directory, issue the show savedconfig command.

Note If the storage router belongs to a cluster, the restored AAA configuration information will automatically

be propagated to other members of that cluster.

restore aaa from filename

Syntax Description

Defaults None.

Command Modes Administrator.

Command History

Usage Guidelines The restore command overwrites all existing AAA configuration information, including any user name

and passwords in the local username database, RADIUS and TACACS+ configuration information, and

the AAA authentication lists used for iSCSI, Enable, and Login authentication.

Note In a cluster environment, AAA management functions are handled by a single storage router. To

determine which storage router is performing AAA management functions, issue the show cluster

command. If you issue a restore aaa command from a storage router that is not performing AAA

management functions, the CLI displays an informational message with the name of the node that is

currently handling those functions. See Chapter 11, “Maintaining and Managing the SN 5428-2 Storage

Router,” for more information about operating the storage router in a cluster.

Examples The following example restores the AAA authentication configuration from the saved configuration file

named aaa_backup:

[SN5428-2A]# restore aaa from aaa_backup

from filename The name of the configuration file containing the information to be

restored. This file must exist in the savedconfig directory.
